Hello!

Sorry, but that weight is wrong. Try 2800-3000 lbs with your setup.

Also, did you know that B&M once had an auto shifter with an 'H" shape gate? Just like the 4-speeds. Go call them to start making more. I need one too.

Shift kit? Is that a manual shift body, or just shift improver? How do you like shifting constantly?
thx

I just put it in gear and go, I do not drop it unless I want to show off... the specs are from the paperwork on the car. It will pin you against the seat at full throttle. Damn nice car......
